    These texts smell like bullshit. When talking in discord he talks like a Gen Z’er, but when texting his SO he switches to talking like a 40-something? While on the run trying to get away with murder he references all the evidence they’ve found? He references that time he was etching messages onto shell casings and how his dad might be mad he wrapped his grandpa’s gun in a towel and left it in a bush. It’s almost like these messages were fabricated by some dipshit podcasters to help sell their boss’s preferred narrative.

    For all the demonization of trans people that the administration and Governor is doing, the actual investigators and local sheriffs seem to be going out of their way to protect the roommate/partner. Yes, she may be transitioning, but the investigators are definitely portraying her as cooperative and as providing key evidence that will be used in the trial. (Even as the news stories are going out of their way to not use any pronouns at all). Imagine how difficult that was for her.

    I know seedier parts of the Internet will doxx her (if they havent already), hopefully the local sheriff will provide some protection to her in exchange for doing the right thing

      Assuming she’s real and not part of the conspiracy to start the war on the left. The text exchange seemed so weird.

        I think it only seemed weird because every media outlet is bending over backwards to not refer to her as “her” or “him”. It’s “the roommate” all the way through

          The actual text was weird. Words they used. Everything was laid out conveniently. Like a villain in a movie telling the hero his plan.

    The only think I’m taking away from all this shit is that we need more trans roommates with the conservative kids.

    I keep thinking of Jin Bubaigawara, aka Twice, and his sad man’s parade. This dude, Tyler, seems to have found love and care with a trans woman after years of being a groyper and a lifetime of sad pepe. So he cast all self preservation aside in order to do what he thought was best for those he cared for…no matter how misguided.

    I see this not as a political issue but as a symptom a growing segment of the population with no fucks to give. Lone gunmen, suicide bombers, etc. It’s all coming.
